"Locke & Key" follows the children of Rendell Locke and his wife Nina as they move to his ancestral home in Lovecraft, Massachusetts after he is murdered. The house not only sports a name, Key House, but is also home to numerous keys imbued with supernatural abilities. The kids try to protect the keys from falling into the hands of Dodge, an ancient enemy who will do anything to collect them and unleash certain doom upon the world.

In addition to penning the screenplay, Kurtzman & Orci will produce the film adaptation alongside Bobby Cohen and IDW CEO and publisher Ted Adams. There is no word at this time whether the project is still being eyed as a trilogy, but fans of the series know there are plenty of stories to tell -- and plenty of keys.
